Crisis help
If things are hard right now, you are not alone. Below are free and anonymous psychological support lines in Ukraine. Syntonia is a community and a public-education project; we do not provide emergency care, so in an acute situation please use these contacts.

The limits of the community, and an important caveat
This is not a substitute for care
Material and discussion within Syntonia are educational. They do not replace therapy, diagnosis or emergency care.
The community is for practitioners
The community space is intended for practitioners and is still in preparation. When it opens, case discussions will be held without names or client-identifying detail.
Respect and safety
We moderate the space: no stigma, no devaluing, no pathologising of difference. Breaches are grounds for moderator intervention.
